darn..

$5,000
I went to the doctor and found out I had a infection in my right boob so he had prescribed me antibiotics. 2 days later I was in so much pain and it was so red and swollen I went in and (without telling me he was going to) cuts the area open and pulls out the infected stitches. So now I have a dime size hole that's pretty deep and set back a few week:/ thankfully the pain now isn't as bad as it was now that he removed those stitches! Did anybody else have this?

5 days post op

Things are going pretty good, I had my post op appointment yesterday my PS said everything looks great and that he took about 5lbs off all together! I'm still very sore and am starting to get itchy, this really is the best decision ever!:)

Even with the swelling and bruises you still look great - congrats on a successful surgery!!!!
Thanks:)
Looks good. I had lipo on one boob on the side and it's still swollen and hard. Hurts a lot too. Guess it just comes with the territory. I just massage it when I'm in the shower with soapy hands and take ibuprofen. Good luck.
How soon did you start massaging after the surgery?
Would you do the side lipo again?
I don't touch my incisions. In the shower, I let water run down my chest, then pat gently dry. You look great!
Thanks you:)
